He's entirely situational in his  thinking, what gets him out of the hole today. Any consequences can be dealt with down the road. Strategy and planning are for nerds, who cares when Boris can just pop up and do his "well ...er ....gosh ...crikey" clown act and everybody forgives him?

Frost is just a patsy, a clockwork toy who can be wound and let loose to stomp around a bit. I don't think he cares about Ulster any more than Boris does. But it's another day, another dollar, over the top we go.

Will they worry that they're making a united Ieland more likely? No. Not till it happens. Then Boris will parachute in and, no doubt, do his clown act, and every body will forgive him and Ulster will forget all about it. Who needs a plan?
